# Why is my balance no longer available for Instant Payouts?

When a payment is received, it appears as a pending balance in your Dashboard, minus any Stripe fees. **This balance remains available for Instant Payouts until it's bundled into a standard payout.** On an automatic payout schedule, that typically happens within 24 hours. On a manual payout schedule, the funds stay available until you manually initiate a standard payout.
Once funds are bundled into a standard payout, those funds aren't available for Instant Payouts and the Instant Payouts balance is updated accordingly. Monitor the status of your payouts in the [Payouts tab of the Dashboard](https://dashboard.stripe.com/payouts).
## Additional info
* If you have a [2-day rolling automatic payout schedule](https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#2-day), you might have more than 24 hours to initiate an Instant Payout before the next payout is generated. Look at the creation time for past payouts to get a sense for when they're generated, or move to a [manual payout schedule](https://stripe.com/docs/payouts#manual-payouts).
* [Multi-currency settlement](https://docs.stripe.com/payouts/multicurrency-settlement) isn't supported. For example, an Instant Payout to a Canadian business must be in CAD.
* If you have a negative balance, you aren't eligible for Instant Payouts.
